Love it: the night after he was kicked off of CBS for good, Stephen Colbert hosted a public access show in southeast Michigan.

The way they're all quietly cracking up as each person performs their sound. Dy-ing!

Bad Bunny’s beautiful and joyful portrayal of Puerto Rico stands on the shoulders of Kendrick Lamar’s love letter to Compton last year. Watching the biggest performance in the world become a representation of real people in real, American places is beautiful. #SuperBowl

Having a reading environment that brings you joy is just as important as the reading itself. 🌈

Ireland has approved plans to permanently implement a basic income program that will support up to 2,200 artists. A cost-benefit analysis found that for every €1 invested, society receives €1.39 back. Officials from other countries are now expressing interest in the program.

Damn. This is amazing. £325 per week, paid monthly, for 3 years - and the result was a profit for the Irish economy: www.citizensinformation.ie/en/employmen...
Post from Threads user rodneyowl: "Ireland has declared the Basic Income for Artists scheme permanent. This will be officially announced in tomorrow’s budget. Details to follow. Congratulations to all who fought for it and the present and future artists of all sorts in Ireland. That includes me 👌We’re just comin to the end of a 3 year pilot scheme. It’s been a roaring success. For every €1 paid out to the 2000 participants, the government got €1.46 back. Can’t argue with that. Other countries are already taking note."

Love @lauralippman.bsky.social's books but equally love her short-form writing (check out Summer of Fall if you haven't already). This piece is an excellent example why. (Get ready for some quiet gut-punches.) #ihavethatonvinyl #AmReading

Graham Greene was the first celebrity I ever interviewed. I was so nervous and he was SO, so kind. Every time I'd see him on screen after that I'd have a tiny flashback to that interview, even if the character he was playing was evil (hi Malachi Strand!) What an actor. What a career.
